Faithful Beginnings

Directions

Faithful Beginnings Welcome to Faithful Beginnings! Where the love of Christ meets the joy of learning.

The Preschool at Mount Holly UMC aims to provide a safe, plentiful learning environment while promoting the success of the whole child (spiritually, emotionally, socially, and academically) through a partnership between preschool staff members, parents, and Mount Holly United Methodist Church. Children will learn through developmentally appropriate play and interactions that nurture and grow a relationship with Christ. Teachers and staff are highly qualified, trained, and dedicated to the success of each individual. The Preschool stimulates children through their natural way of learning: play and social interaction. Students will feel safe to explore new things and confirm prior knowledge through play with other children. Academics will progress in a developmentally appropriate manner both in accordance with age and individual student needs. Spiritual growth will follow the Christian calendar including prayer, scripture, child-friendly Bible stories, and holiday celebrations. Units of study will parallel faith and academic goals while nurturing a fluid relationship between child’s interest and teacher guidance. This complementary strategy will ensure that children reach all levels of understanding (Bloom’s Taxonomy).

🎖️🔤 ABC BOOTCAMP IS OFFICIALLY UNDERWAY! 🔤🎖️

Our K3 & K4 friends are kicking off ABC Bootcamp and getting ready to learn their letters in a whole new way! 💚

We’re learning The Better Alphabet—not just memorizing letters, but learning to recognize them, say their sounds, write them, and use them in meaningful ways! ✏️📚

From letter hunts and hands-on activities to songs, movement, fine motor practice, and plenty of repetition, we’re making letter learning FUN, active, and engaging!

We may be in bootcamp… but there’s definitely lots of smiles, giggles, and learning happening along the way!

🔤 Letters today. Readers tomorrow. 📖✨

🎨 I AIN’T GONNA… PAINT NO MORE! 🎨

We’re easing into our All About Me unit with a little creativity, a lot of giggles, and LOTS of paint! 💚

After reading “I Ain’t Gonna Paint No More!”, we had some fun with the phrase “I ain’t gonna…” and connected it to our classroom rules and expectations. We talked about the things we aren’t gonna do in our classroom—like being unkind, not listening, or forgetting to use our walking feet—and the things we ARE gonna do: be kind, make good choices, listen, learn, and have fun! 🌟

Then came the best part… PAINTING! 🎨

Our little artists got to use paint to create a colorful portrait ON their teacher, giving them a chance to practice self-expression, creativity, and individuality. There’s no better way to begin talking about who we are than by letting each child express themselves through art! 🖌️💕

We “ain’t gonna” paint the walls… 😉
…but we ARE gonna paint, create, explore, and learn together all year long! 💚🎨✨

🍋💛 SIP, SIP, HOORAY! What a sweet day! 💛🍋

Our Lemonade Open House was a HUGE success, and we couldn’t have asked for a sweeter way to kick off our school year! 🥰

Getting to meet all of our students and their families, put faces to names, share some laughs, and spend time together was such a joy. We loved seeing our classrooms come to life and watching the excitement build for all the learning, friendships, and memories ahead!

Thank you to every family who came out and made today so special. We are SO excited for this year and feel incredibly blessed to have each of you as part of our Faithful Beginnings family! 💚

Here’s to a year full of learning, laughing, growing, and making memories together! 🍋📚💛

We’re ready for you, friends! Tuesday can’t come soon enough! 🎉

✨ The kids aren’t here yet… but we’ve been BUSY!

CPR training? ✔️
Staff meetings? ✔️
Classroom prep? ✔️
Mini lessons? ✔️
Planning, organizing, laminating, labeling, rearranging, second-guessing, rearranging AGAIN? ✔️
Caffeine consumption? Let’s just say… we’re ready. ☕️🤣

We’ve trained.
We’ve planned.

And now… WE’RE READY FOR OUR STUDENTS! 🎉

Tuesday, we trade the quiet classrooms for tiny voices, big personalities, endless questions, giggles, and just the right amount of beautiful chaos. 🤩

🍎 Monday Teacher Mentions 🍎

Meet Mrs. Nita 🤍

We are so blessed to have Mrs. Nita as part of the Faithful Beginnings family! This is her third year with us, and her heart for early childhood education is truly something special. She will be our K4 lead teacher!

Mrs. Nita has been working in education since 2001, pouring into generations of children with love, patience, and a heart for ministry. She planned to retire after last school year, but God had other plans! She quickly realized she wasn’t quite finished ministering to young children through the gift of early childhood education. 💚

When she isn’t loving on our little learners, Mrs. Nita enjoys spending time with her grandkids, visiting the beach, and collecting vintage treasures. She especially loves her slow mornings with a hot cup of coffee and time spent in her devotions. ☕️📖🌊

We are so thankful that Mrs. Nita said “not yet” to retirement and “yes” to another year of loving, teaching, and planting little seeds of faith in the hearts of our children.

We love you, Mrs. Nita, and we are so grateful you’re here! ✨

As we prepare to welcome our sweet students back for another year at Faithful Beginnings, I just want to take a moment to say thank you to our incredible community village. 💚

The generosity and kindness you have shown through your donations to help prepare our classrooms has truly touched my heart. Every item donated, every helping hand, and every person who has supported our preschool has helped create a warm, welcoming place for our children to learn, grow, and feel loved.

As the director, one of my greatest joys is watching this little school come together — not just because of what happens inside our classrooms, but because of the people who surround us and believe in what we are building here.

It truly takes a village, and we are so blessed to have one.

Thank you for helping us prepare a place where little hearts can grow, little minds can learn, and most importantly, where children can experience the love of Christ each day. We are praying over these classrooms, our teachers, and every precious child who will walk through our doors this year.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being part of our Faithful Beginnings family. 💚

With gratitude,

Kayla Piper
Director

Mrs. Jackie! 🌼

We are so excited to have Mrs. Jackie as part of the Faithful Beginnings family! This year, Mrs. Jackie will be serving as our K4 Assistant Teacher, and we are blessed to have her experience, wisdom, and heart for children in our classroom.

Mrs. Jackie has a lifelong passion for children’s ministry. She has been involved in Children’s Church programs and youth ministry since her own children were young, and even today she continues to serve by leading Sunday School. Her love for guiding children in their faith and helping them grow is such a gift to our school family.

While Mrs. Jackie loves children of all ages, she has a special place in her heart for four- and five-year-olds. She loves how eager they are to learn, discover how things work, and celebrate their accomplishments. She believes in encouraging children, building their confidence, and reminding them how special they are.

When she’s not at school, Mrs. Jackie enjoys playing bridge, walking, spending time with her grandson, and relaxing at the beach. 🌊

Mrs. Jackie’s heart is to serve the Lord by making a difference in the lives of children, and we are so thankful she is part of Faithful Beginnings. We can’t wait to see the love, encouragement, and joy she brings to our K4 classroom this year! 💛

Mrs. Nikki! 💚

We are so excited to introduce Mrs. Nikki, one of our K3 teachers! 🥰

Mrs. Nikki has been working in childcare for the past two years and says she loves it more and more every day! She has a heart for children and is excited to be part of their preschool journey as they learn, grow, and discover new things together. 🍎📚

Outside of the classroom, Mrs. Nikki is married and a proud fur mama. She and her family love spending their free time at the beach and traveling whenever they get the chance! 🌊☀️ She is also currently attending college to earn her degree in Biblical Studies. ✝️

When she’s not teaching or studying, you can probably find her shopping or enjoying all things cow print and western! 🤠🐄

We are so thankful to have Mrs. Nikki as part of our Faithful Beginnings family, and we can’t wait for you and your little ones to get to know her! 💚
